This June and July, four of our robotics students interned at Aegis Software -- one of our strongest and most lasting partners. Together, these interns developed, constructed, designed, and implemented a robust framework that allowed for customer data to be accepted and managed by the customer support team in order to support the bug-fixing process, using Python and React to create the application! We are so glad to be able to continue this internship year after year, and we are grateful to Aegis Software for the opportunity!
